All have received excellent reviews from travellers and are ideal for a comfortable nature stopover. Take advantage of the benefits of the Pack'Privilège and the Pass'Étapes for a carefree stay.

1. Saint-Germain-sur-Ay (Normandy)

The Camping-Car Park area of Saint-Germain-Sur-Ay on the coast of Les Havres, offers family beaches, walks on the coastal path and unspoiled nature between the sand and salt meadows. Nearby, the Lessay moors, Lake Bruyères and the Cotentin mountains complete the escape.
Agostino's review: Impeccable area, delimited pitches, laundry next door, good products in the center.
Note: 4.6 / 5

2. Codolet (Occitanie)

The Camping-Car Park area of Codolet is nestled between the Rhône and the Cèze. Codolet is an ideal nature stopover, close to Orange and Avignon. Hiking, a Natura 2000 listed lake and Roman heritage to discover on foot or by bike.
Pierre's review: Very well located, in the vineyards, by the lake. A shame about the card system for water/WC.
Note: 4.6 / 5

3. Ussel (Nouvelle-Aquitaine)

The Camping-Car Park area of Ussel is the capital of Haute-Corrèze. Ussel combines medieval charm and outdoor activities. Its Lac de Ponty offers fishing, nature sports and relaxation. The town is labeled a "Nature Sports Resort", ideal for lovers of heritage and hiking.
Carole's review: Very good area. Very well maintained park, clean sanitary facilities, perfect lake for a walk.
Note: 4.6 / 5

4. Pontaumur (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes)

The Camping-Car Park area of Pontaumur is attractive for its calm, its landscapes of the Combrailles and its river ideal for fishing. Close to the Auvergne volcanoes, the village is an ideal starting point to the Queuille belvedere or the Lac des Fades-Besserve.
Nelly's review: Clean and complete area. Accessible rivers, city center and supermarket within walking distance. Peaceful extended stay.
Note: 4.6 / 5

5. Matemale (Occitanie)

The Camping-Car Park area of Matemale is at an altitude of 1,500m. Matemale is a mountain haven. Summer and winter alike, hiking, lake, forests and sports activities abound. The Catalan village promotes sustainable tourism in the heart of the "little Canada" of the Pyrenees.
